Description:
|
Exterior view. Location: Corner of Green Park - originally nearby and opposite Apsley House. The original statue of Duke of Wellington (by M.C. Wyatt) on top of the arch was removed from the arch when it was moved and replaced in 1912 with the current piece by Adrian JONES. To the right is an equestrian statue of the Duke by J.E. BOEHM (1883), smaller than the one removed from the arch.
